Preparing Cedar Bark for weaving

- In this video: After collecting the bark from the woods and drying for a couple of day, soak it for at least 3 hours before cutting and splitting. First cut before first split. After splitting, then cut into 1/2", 1/4" or 1/8" widths. Use only a few blades with the Table Top Lace cutter, or you will break the cutter. To cut 1" pieces use three blades spaced 1" apart. To cut the 1" wide strip into 1/8" use 9 blades and to cut 1/4" use 5 blades.

This was awesome! Thank you so much! I am Coast Salish/Sto:lo and just started using cedar! I learned once but needed a refresher on the basics! This was perfect and I think the only video online done by an actual indigenous dude versus the other ones where they're not native and seems like they have no clue what they are doing. Huy Chewx a!
Thank you so much for sharing! ❤
Gunalcheesh!! Thank you

Hey Todd,
Hyshqe 🙌
thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom
Good teaching, thank you!
I always wondered how this was done.
So glad to have come across this video. Please describe how to remove the outer bark of the cedar tree. Is it done from a fresh cut tree or is the bark dried then removed? I have a downed tree which I want to save the bark for basket weaving. I learned some helpful techniques from the video, but don't have the tool to split strips of bark so all will be done with a single blade. Thank you for further helps.
Use a hatchet or knife to remove the bark from tree. See video on harvesting cedar bark. ruclips.net/video/7-4cuDrYgi0/видео.html
I’m Tlingit living in Arkansas with 0 first hand experience with native arts and people. My weaving knowledge is only from online and I can say I’ve wasted two large cedar bark peels trying to split it half ass
we are cutting cedar trees for poles, and i want to keep the bark, but since i have a lot to process, i'm wondering if i can keep it rolled with it's outer bark and peel it later when rehydrated? any other suggestions?❤
Hello, It's best you crack off as much of the outer bark as possible. After its re-hydrated it's very difficult to remove the inner bark, as it turns to wood.
Where can I purchase cedar bark?
What or where u get cutter
Do you have to soak the bark after harvesting or weaving or do you do all this when it’s dried?
dry after harvesting. then when you need to weave with it, soak bark for 3 hours
I have heard different on how long you leave roll to dry 3 monthes to a years, and do you start the soak with hot water?
I am looking for a tool just like the one you have, what is it called and where might you go about getting one ( I live in GB), I am trying to process birch, sweet chestnut and lime bark, thank you
Its called a Table Top Leather Lace Cutter or Jerry Stripper for short.
Todd is the cedar dry when you cut the bark or split it . Do you split it first?
Soak the bark at least 3 hours in cold water prior to cutting. After cutting to 1" widths, then split.
What species of cedar is this?
western red cedar
